About Me

The Climb Take Action~7 Summits Challenge is dedicated to empowering women in the Democratic Republic of Congo by climbing to raise funds and awareness for these women.
Although there are many humanitarian needs in the world, the case of the Congo, has been deemed to have the worst sexual violence in the world by John Holmes, UN Undersecretary General for Humanitarian Affairs. In 2010 alone, it is estimated that 15,000 women were raped in Eastern Congo.
We are currently raising funds for International Medical Corps and VDAY, which are two amazing charities doing remarkable work with women in the Congo. All donations are tax deductible.
